Protected objects represent the logical path elements that are made accessible via a
connection.
About this task
The connection object space represents the logical paths to protected objects from the
connection. For example, paths to directories, files, programs, or locations. You can add as many
protected objects to a connection as you need. You can select any existing object from the
connection down to create as deep, and complex a hierarchy as you need.You can attach Access
Control Lists (ACLs) and Protected Object Policies (POPs) to protected object. When a policy is
attached to an object, the policy is applied to the object and all child objects. An inherited
policy is overridden if other policies are attached at a lower level.
